Mrs. Hilbrecht's Homeroom Updates
Week of April 7, 2014
Career Kickoff!
Don't forget that Thursday, April 24th is Take Your Child to Work Day. What a valuable way to share a day in the life of your (or a family member's) career with your child. This is considered an excused absence - just make sure you submit a note to school!
Roz is "always watching"
Class Dojo Update
Each afternoon, students will record their point totals in their homework assignment book. This will provide time to reflect on how the day went, and remind students to make tomorrow even better. I will randomly select 1 day each week to award PBIS coupons based on students' point totals. It is also possible that the entire class could be recognized for amazing behavior, or that individual students are recognized for an amazing day or improvements made throughout the week.
